A Sheltered life ....

L

a shelter of a different kind   ~
 
breaking free from the confines of it's cosy shelter
 this pretty poppy spread its papery crepe-de-chine petals
and quickly discarded it's hairy bud spheres
 

 
 
fuzzy little buds and crumpled petals have a beauty of their own
 
 
I started writing my post about bus shelters in our city
but during that time this poppy bud emerged from it's cocoon
right before my eyes
I hope you like it !
 
 
 
 
this is my contribution to
"Shelter"
